It's that time of year again, crisper air, shorter days, and what to bring for lunch. Whether it's back to school or just getting into a good routine of what to bring for lunch at work, I pulled together 5 of my favourite, easy recipes that keep the taste buds interested and have amazing brain fuel to focus all day long!
One of my regularly scheduled programs is this super easy, super delicious Chickpea Salad Sandwich Mix
Recipe , that is fantastic on rice crackers for a great gluten-free option, or in an organic wholegrain roll up for easy eating and full of fibre, even as a dip for a bowl full of colourful veggies!

Breakfasts are always a challenge on busy mornings, sometimes a healthy on-the-go option can be just as nutritious as a sit down meal. Even though it's a healthy habit to slow things down and create mindful eating habits at all meals, I'm not kidding anyone that that can happen 100% of the time, but being prepared for these fast moving mornings also has benefits to be instilled, choosing healthy prepared meals and avoiding the convenient but non-nutritional foods.
Here's two of my fav of Grab-and-Go breakfasts chalked full of healthy fats and plant based proteins to keep the energy even and lasting all the way to lunch!
Try this Seedy Breakfast Bar ( with or without the nuts) for a healthy filling option to head out the door with.

And these Apple and Spice Breakfast Muffins are a gluten free, nut free, dairy free option for breakfast and to pack in the wee ones lunches as I know that so many schools are nut free facilities.
To keep things fun and interesting, and colourful, Veggie Nuggets are so easy to make in a big batch, freeze some for future use, and make a few different sauces so you can mix up the flavour throughout the week. And can I just say hell to the extra servings of colourful veggies!!
Things like bean, lentils, and intact whole grains are amazing fuel for the lunchbox. Bean salads, with avocado, and a fresh cherry tomatoes, has a great balance of plant based proteins, healthy fats, and colourful veggies. Another great option is quinoa added to any of your favorite salads as a healthy whole grain that is full of fibre. Try this Tabouli Salad to keep the taste buds on there toes! Add sauteed tofu or extra seeds for a full meal that will keep you going all the way to dinner!
Whether young or grown, I wish you all a year and a lifetime of discovering new knowledge, new delicious recipes, and new compassion for all.
